MS DOS. Not even kidding, and no I'm not that old. I just happen to find the cmd executable in the start menu and started messing around with .bat files.
I thought I was some pro-haxor only a few steps away from hacking world governments when I figured out how to change the color of the cmd window, and make "fake" blue screens of death.
It was an interesting experience, since I didn't use the internet, I basically guessed my way through learning some basics of coding, and spent large portions of my time reading the help pages.
It wasn't until 5+ years later when I got into college I started to get serious and learned a "real" programming (Java and Python). It was only then I realized how little I actually knew with my cmd scripts. However, I think the time spent learning, and debugging my small fun little scripts really taught me a number of skills I later applied to hit the ground running with full on programming.
Hi!

This is probably the most interesting reply and exactly what i was looking for to start my day off with ! i guess we all have been " Hackers" in our own mind when we started programming 😂
